Activate long range in UART Example SDK15.1.0

[l.r.97]

Hello everybody, I tried to activate the PHY Coded in the UART Example from the SDK15.1.0 examples.

For this purpose, I have set NRF_BLE_SCAN_SCAN_PHY 4 in the sdk_config.h central example and changed BLE_GAP_PHY_1MBPS to BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED in nrf_ble_scan_default_param_set ().

In the Peripheral example, I changed ble_advertising_conn_cfg_tag_set () to BLE_GAP_PHY_1MBPS in BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED. Does anyone have an idea why this does not work. The two boards are no longer connecting to each other.

Thank you in advance

Hi!

I would suggest that you take a look at this blog-post and see if you can find the answer there.
This blog post demonstrates that the long range feature works the way it is supposed to. You can also test or look at the code yourself with the attached project/binaries.
